Default my Buick Lesabre T-types

I have a pair of Buick Lesabre T-types. Some people have never seen one in person, and I have 2 just sitting in my garage

The white one is my wife'* daily driver, 1988 cloth seats, 172K miles Recently recieved the Delco coil update and an alignment / port job to the TB and Plentum.





The Black one is my um well I call it a show car yet I never get it out of the garage, so maybe my collector car?? It has leather seats and 60K miles. Recently colected a winters worth of dust.





Thanks for looking.
Brad

I'll have to admit, I've never seen one of these cars in person.

Yours look great!

What'* under the hood? for some reason I'm thinking the turbo 3100 but I don't know when they started making those. . .

or a good ol' 3800?

I'm curious

EDIT: just did some research; 3800

It has the 3800. They also have a 2.97 gear too. I think the same ratio as the trofeo, and bonnie'*.

The T-Type was one of my dream cars when I was younger. I love them.

You got some nice sets of wheels.

Does the black one get driven often or just be a garage queen, you mentioned that it sits out the winter weather. What about spring, summer and fall?
